"The Southern Poverty Law Center, a non-profit civil rights organization, has described the "Oath Keepers" as a "fiercely anti-government, militaristic group," and St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar condemned        their appearance in Ferguson.

 

Their presence was both unnecessary and inflammatory," he said, adding that police would work with county prosecutors to see if the men had broken any laws.

 

Led by a man who gave his name only as John, the group, whose members wore bulletproof vests and carried sidearms in addition to combat-style rifles, said they had come to protect a journalist from the conservative "Infowars.com" Web site.

 

"There were problems here, there were people who got hurt. We needed to be prepared for that," said the man, who noted that Missouri state laws generally allow the open carrying of heavy weapons of the kind that his group were brandishing."

You should have read the first edition of the article before the edits. Within the first 3 lines the " journalist "  stated the oath keepers were carrying automatic rifles and side arms. He changed the wording to Combat style rifle too, forgot what it was at first.

Heavy weapons? I didn't see any barricaded heavy machine guns or MK-19's. I bet the rioting would have calmed way down after one long rip from a MA Deuce or MK 19.

It was originally reported as "Heavily armed white civilians patrolled Ferguson, drawing criticism from police".

 

And this is how all this crap starts again. It gets reported one way so that a certain group will take to the streets but in the meantime they change the headlines and act like they did nothing wrong.

 

The media, for the most part, sickens me with how they report news here in the US. Anyone who has been overseas knows that real news is everywhere else and if you want to know what is going on here then find a news source from another country.

Yet, these four men were not caught looting or causing other damage....interesting. Seems like there were there peacefully armed and it stayed that way. If the people of the community don't like the laws, then change them, but they were doing nothing illegal. Of course, if the people of that community focused on the fact that their little "angels" are't, the community would be in better shape.

Evidently the oath keepers were sporting "M-15 rifles with several magazine cartridges strapped across their buddy armour."

I'm not up to speed on this M-15 platform but I think I need one. Seriously though how do"journalists" expect anyone who knows anything to take then seriously when they are either 1) making stuff up our 2) taking someone else's word on the facts?

Journalists = liberal idiots.....no really.

No one should pay any attention to what the Southern Poverty Law Center says anyway... They are no more trackers and objective evaluators of the beliefs of "groups" than i am a brain surgeon... They are a bunch of far left, racist jackasses formed up by a piece of lawyer trash named Morris Dees whose goal is the intimidation and smearing of people and groups they dont like (...which is most everybody who doesnt see things their way...)... 

 

They are a smear machine for the black supremacists, the gubmt,  and the news apparatchiks who use them as handy "expert sources" to smear who and what they don't like...They evidently believe that it's still slave days and whitey is still busy persecuting the black slave population...

 

I say the hell with the Southern Poverty Law Center, the pimps that work there, and the trash that use them as sources...
